Festive Robin

 I am waaaay behind with Christmas card making this year, so I need to make a few quickie ones to boost my stockpile. That's where Hunkydory's kits come in handy - these two cards are made using a kit from a few years ago. 



The first card uses  half of one of the background card sheets plus an image, sentiment and frame from one of the die cut sheets. 

The second uses  the other half of the background, turned sideways, topped with a border from the die cut sheet. I then used a gold frame, the waste from another of the images on the sheet, and stuck a piece of paper of the same design taken from a Hunkydory "Little Book" behind it, trimming away the excess. I decoupaged the robin and foliage from a second sheet of the same design and attached it with 3D adhesive, overlapping the frame where necessary. Then I finished the card with a sentiment and embellishment, the last items left on the die cut sheet, and some teardrop shaped gold gems. 

I am sharing these with
